My wedding ring keeps falling off! I still have 70 pounds to lose so I don't want to get it sized yet. Does anyone have any tricks?

I'm obviously not a jewelry person haha!

They have little sizer clips you can buy for cheap. You buy it and clip it on. Sizes you down a bit.

All right Nicole!! Hehe I don't know maybe some tape?? I have the same problem I've had it sized once but it still slips to the side (must be that big rock) the jeweler said something about putting little bumpers in it? I'll have to look it up

There are two kinds. Rubber cheap and temporary and the metallic semi permanent ones that are more expensive. I like the look of the metal better. I got mine at fast fix a jewelry repair place in the mall.

You could go the old high school route and wrap some thread or yarn on the underside of the ring until you can get a more permanent fix.

Oh good idea! I don't like the plastic things as they feel kinda bulky on the palm side of my hand, but thread might be better! Thanks!

I've been struggling with keeping my rings on, sucks. I'll almost lose it before realizing it's about to fall off and I've still got a baby cows worth of weight to lose.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
